cool there are some companies that care and not just say ' if you can't use
our software tough, we're not gonna spend the time to modify our program so
you can use it. there are many other customers out there we don't need
you!'
then there are the ones that say ' we are trying our best to make our
program compatible with screen readers but there is not an exact date when
it will be released' then nothing happens!

Subject: [JAWS-Users] webroot
This is the email I got from the techniqual support. Nice that they tested
it with jaws just to see if will work for blind nuts like me.
Thank you for reaching out to us today.
WSA has not been optimized to work with any screen reader...
WSA has not been optimized to work with any screen reader programs.
Navigating WSA with JAWS can be difficult and frustrating for visually
impaired users, but it is possible and the content is read out loud. We were
successful in using Jaws 14 with WSA ourselves. Please make sure your JAWS
software is up to date.
Our recommendation would be that once WSA is installed it be left alone,
simply because it can be tricky to navigate, and instead to use the WSA Tray
Icon to get a quick reading as to the status of the WSA application. To list
the System Tray Icons List you would use INSERT+F11 and when moving through
the list the Webroot product will indicate it is protecting the system (such
as “Webroot SecureAnywhere v8.0.2.147 – Protected”) or the system is
infected (such as “Webroot SecureAnywhere v8.0.2.147 – Infected”).
With Windows 7, the system tray may not show WSA since it typically only
displays 3 icons, but WSA can be forced to always be displayed there. Press
the Windows key + B, then press Shift + F10. From the options, select
Customize notification icons, then select Webroot, and then select Show icon
and notifications.
The 'Skim Reading' function, which is invoked using INSERT+CTRL+DOWN ARROW,
can read the Webroot screen. The Skim Reading Dialog configuration Box can
be brought up using INSERT+CTRL+SHIFT+DOWN ARROW.
If you lose focus on the WSA program and want to bring it to the foreground
the command INSERT+F10 does the trick. You can use an arrow key until you
hear “Webroot SecureAnywhere” and then press the NUMPAD SLASH key to perform
a left-mouse-click and then the Enter key to select.
To install SecureAnywhere:
1. Download WSA and start the installer, the Installation screen is
presented.
2. Click the NUMPAD MINUS key to activate the Jaws curser.
3. Use up/down arrow keys to listen for “Enter your keycode to install and
activate your software”, you may have to use the right arrow key to move
over to this text which is read out loud when moving across it. Then press
the NUMPAD SLASH key to perform a left-mouse-click.
4. Enter your keycode and hit the Enter key.
5. If a User Account Control message appears, select Yes.
If you have already downloaded the newest version of JAWS or are still
encountering difficulties please contact tech support at 1-866-612-4227.
Thank you
Holger Fiallo
